Ingredients |
|
|
1 pound butter (unsalted) 1 cup granulated sugar 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon vanilla 4 cups all-purpose flour 1 egg (optional) |
|
Method |
|
| Preheat oven to 300F. Thoroughly combine the first 4 ingredients, then combine with flour until the dough comes together completely (you may optionally combine an egg with the first 4 ingredients in order to bring the dough together, but you can achieve the same result as the butter begins to soften). You may also make Chocolate Marble Butter Cookies by making this recipe once and then another one just like it (optionally cutting the recipe in half, depending on how many cookies you want to make), but substituting 1/2 cup cocoa for 1/4 cup of the flour. Just combine the dry ingredients thoroughly, and then when you begin to form the logs (see below), cut the two doughs into disks and roll them together. Be sure to prevent any air bubbles from remaining between the doughs. Form into a log and cut into 1-inch pieces. Bake for 30 minutes, or until very lightly golden. |
